Random thoughts

So I officially decided today that I am going to buy the 13in MacBook Pro! :) I am so excited! I won't buy it for a few months but I am looking forward to it!

I logged onto my NU account today to find that I have been registered for next fall! Ah so exciting! I will be taking 6 classes each semester unless they change that in Germany. I will be registered here for 6 classes. It is crazy to think that I will have 2 different degrees when I graduate. I will have one in Event and Meeting Management from Niagara and one in Destination Management from the International University of Applied Sciences- Bad Honnef!

I got my official acceptance letter last week! We have to keep the original to take to Germany for our visas and I am so worried I am going to lose it! I have no idea where to put it so I won't forget it or lose it!

My car decided tonight would be a good night to stop working properly. I know I need to get some intake thingy ma jig replaced but was told just to keep an eye on it. Well apparently it is time to suck it up and get it replace because not being able to go over 50mph is not working so well when I travel on highways everyday! I am hoping it will get me home tonight. I really do not want to be stranded.

There are only 4 more class days until finals. I have a presentation, 2 papers, and a project all due next Tuesday. Not an ideal time to be booked solid! Plus next week one of the families I sit for is using me Wednesday-Sunday while the parents are at a conference for work. Pretty much being a mom for 5 days. I am looking for participants in Margarita Monday May 2nd. I am sure I will need a drink or 5! So if anyone wants to join in please comment on here and I will be sure to give you the details! :)

Until next time.....

LETS GO SABRES!

Second thoughts

I am so excited to go to Germany but at the same time I have second thoughts daily. It has been a lot worse since Robert decided to buy a house. We had been discussing it but it hasn't seemed real until now. Tomorrow we are going to look at a house that has everything we are looking for.

Now I know what a lot of you are thinking... Your boyfriend is buying this house not you! While this is true we have been dating for over two years and plan to spendbthe rest of our lives together. So this house will eventually be mine as well. It scares me that we are taking all these steps together and then I will be leaving. I just feel like I'm walking out on all the hard work we have put forth the past two years. I know I would regret not going so I am obviously going but I just have things to work out!

SABRES ARE COMING TO EUROPE!!! SOOO EXCITED! I am going to the game in Berlin and hopefully the game in Helsinki. We don't get our schedules until we get to Germany so I can't determine if I'll have time to get to Finland in time for the game. I am really excited. I hope my friends get to go on the trip with the team so I can feel a little better! It will be nice sine my birthday is 3 weeks after we leave. I will be home sick for sure!

There is only 140 days or until I leave. I will be mid-flight to Hamburg 20 weeks from now. It is so crazy to think about but deep down I know I made the right choice.


I know this was a long and boring entry and more like a diary but it is a huge part of going on this adventure.

Thank you for all of the love and support!
